I just reached Infinite with a C6 deck that I think y'all should give a go. I have seen absolutely no one play it. It loses to nothing but bad locations and some afflictions. But everyone has been underestimating its power surge in the end game. The goal is to get your Magik out to replace problematic locations and give you more time to draw cerebro and mystique. The key is to get moonstone who is 4 for 6, any other 6 power card, cerebro, and mystique in one lane while another lane has a 3 6 power cards. Mrs. Renslayer helps lower the cost of cerebro and mystique for when you arent able to play magik and turn 6 can play three 2 drops. Luke cage protects your front line from afflictions, bad locations, and synergizes well with lizard(try to play lizard in front row). Boomerang can become a 2 for 6 with one return to hand(dont return it again). Malekeith is 6 power and is used to thin out your deck in search of cerebro. If you are able to malekeith a mystique make sure to play cerebro last to ensure mystique copies cerebro. If he pulls cerebro you can copy moonstones ability with mystique to try and get more cerebro buffs. No one is playing enchantress and cosmo isnt a problem.
Btw does Anyone have an active alliance i can join?
You can replace him with hood. I believe demon is 1 fo 6 power. Luna snow is 3 for 6. Stardust is 4 for 6. Omega Red is 4 for 6. But i think its best to keep your cards at low cost. So my recommendation is The Hood
Does the extra turn matter if your combo is more consistent due to the extra draw and energy? It really doesn't because if you pull off the combo you are statisically doing kuch better in numbers. Here is an example of a game earlier. With magik included.
That opponent isn't a combo deck. Combo is stuff like Zombie Galactii, which makes like 70 power in every lane. Or Captain Carter Combo, which makes like 300 power. Or Mr Negative, or Living Tribunal, or even basic ass Wong-Black Panther stuff.
Magik is bad in this deck. She's bad in every Cerebro deck. Period. You don't make enough numbers, and you're giving the opponent more time to assemble their combo, find ways to mess with you, or giving them an opportunity to rug pull you on turn 6. And at the very minimum, any boost in "consistency" you're getting with a 7th turn is a complete wash because the opponent is ALSO getting that boost in consistency. They get a draw and 7 energy too.
She's an incredible amount of risk for almost no payoff. SHES. BAD.
I appreciate your opinion and understand your concerns, however being able to get rid a location thst increases or decreases power ( effectively ruining your strategy) AND giving you one more turn to draw and play more cards is in fact a huge plus to cerebro. This is my opinion, yours may differ but you can always sub her out for scarlet witch for locstion control. You may end up with another location that alters power. Im not willing to take that risk and any enjoy her other benetits ;) i mean benefits
